Thread: Got a new brush...what did I get?

I liked it so I bought it but there's no maker indicated, just Italy. Anyone know more this one:

Nothing huh? Oh well, I did use it for the first time yesterday. I very much enjoyed it. I was just hoping to know who made it. Either way, I'm happy with the purchase.

Funny they would put "since 1939 and hand-made" but no maker. Maybe it rubbed off if it's vintage otherwise I would assume it was made for some retailer somewhere but it's still funny there is no name on it.

It looks like either a silvertip or best badger. Lets us know how it works.

Looks like Best badger (based off my one best badger brush ). I feel like I've seen that logo before but I can't place it. If you have a smart phone try using google goggles to search for it.

Looks like Theirs Issard's logo, but it isn't. Nice copy :P

5 mins on Google and I found this for you:

Concord: Gentlemen's Accessories Since 1939

So, it's a Concord product. That's good to know. That did not come up in my search...perhaps I was using the wrong search engine. In any case, I do appreciate the input but given the nature of some of the responses, it appears as though my ignorance may have offended other members and for that I sincerely apologize.

I don't think anyone was disparaging you or your question. I think most of us were just fuzzy on the logo because it looks familiar but couldn't place it. And I, for one, have week googlefu skills.

Nothing to apologize about.

No need to apologize at all, that’s what one of the main reasons the forum is for, to find answers to your questions.

I hope my posting above with the links did not lead you to think that you were ignorant and had offended me or others.

I was only too glad to offer my assistants and enjoyed trying to search around for clues to your brush origin.

If only if I could do that to find one of my razor origins.
